Start with one visible action
A good video prompt has a subject doing one clear thing. Avoid stacking too many story beats into a short clip.
Build cinematic Seedance 2.0 prompts for text-to-video, image-to-video, product shots, character scenes, and social ads. Pick the scene, camera move, motion, reference mode, duration, resolution, and aspect ratio, then copy a ready-to-use prompt.

Seedance settings
A cinematic product launch for a new smartwatch on a reflective black pedestal in cinematic realism. Camera: slow dolly-in. Motion: natural character motion. Mood: golden-hour optimism. Format: 8 seconds, 720p, 16:9 aspect ratio. No external reference media. Maintain visual consistency from the written scene description. Include rich scene continuity, clear subject identity, realistic lighting, and a satisfying final frame. Avoid warped anatomy, unreadable text, flicker, abrupt cuts, muddy lighting, and inconsistent character details.

Prompt formula
Video models respond best when the prompt reads like a compact shot brief. Put the subject first, then the camera, motion, visual style, timing, and constraints. If you use references, define what should be preserved and what can change.
A good video prompt has a subject doing one clear thing. Avoid stacking too many story beats into a short clip.
Seedance prompts improve when you specify a camera move, subject motion, lighting, and how the scene should change over time.
For image-to-video or mixed media workflows, say which traits must stay stable: face, outfit, product shape, logo placement, colors, or scene layout.
Examples
A premium wireless headphone rotating on a glossy black pedestal, cinematic realism, macro push-in with shallow depth of field, soft rim lighting, subtle dust particles, 8 seconds, 720p, 16:9. Keep logo details sharp and avoid text distortion.
Use the uploaded character image as the identity reference. The character turns toward camera in a rainy neon street, handheld tracking shot, natural hair and fabric motion, high-contrast suspense, 12 seconds, 720p, 9:16. Preserve face shape, outfit, and color palette.
A founder taps a mobile app and the interface appears as clean floating panels, commercial beauty film, slow dolly-in, clean tech minimalism, energetic social ad pacing, 6-8 seconds, 720p, 4:5. End on a clear final frame for a CTA overlay.
SEO guide
Use concrete nouns instead of vague adjectives. A prompt like a glass perfume bottle on wet black stone, rim-lit, macro push-in gives the model more useful direction than broad requests like make it look luxury. Add lens, lighting, texture, and final-frame language when you need an ad-ready result.
Keep time realistic. A short clip can show a reveal, a camera move, a pose change, or a product rotation, but it usually cannot carry a whole story. For consistent characters, mention identity, outfit, hair, color palette, and any reference image that should guide the generation.
A Seedance 2.0 prompt generator helps turn a rough video idea into a structured prompt with subject, camera movement, visual style, motion details, duration, resolution, aspect ratio, and reference-media instructions.
Describe the subject, setting, camera move, motion, lighting, style, output format, and negative constraints. For image-to-video or reference workflows, state exactly what should stay consistent.
Seedance 2.0 is designed for multimodal video generation workflows, so this generator includes prompt language for text-only, image, video, audio, and mixed-media references.
Short video prompts work best when the action has one clear beginning, movement, and final frame. This page includes 4, 8, 12, and 15 second presets for common generation workflows.
